Ever have a difficult time making your characters sound less like adults and more like kids?  Many adult authors who write for kids struggle with the task of making the children in their books sound more like children.  Well that's where the Children's Writer's Word Book comes in.

Based on grade level, the word book list vocabulary most common for that particular grade.  So if your protagonist is in the 5th grade, the book can guide you to the words s/he would know at that level.  Included in the word book is also a thesaurus.  Have a specific word in mind, this book shows you the like words and what level that like word falls under.
 
So while the Children's Writer's Word Book can't solve the whole trouble of character speech, it certainly can help.
